    FAQs

    What does it mean that we are saved by grace and not by living a good life? ›

    Grace alone means that God loves, forgives, and saves us not because of who we are or what we do, but because of the work of Christ. Our best efforts can never be good enough to earn salvation, but God declares us righteous for Christ's sake. We receive that grace through faith alone.

    What does humble yourselves therefore under God's mighty hand that he may lift you up in due time mean? ›

    Peter reminds us that we are not humbling ourselves under the hand of our human authorities, including the elders in the church. No, we are willingly humbling ourselves under the hand of God. When the proper time comes, He will exalt us either here, or in the life to come, or both, to some extent.

    What does it mean for the joy set before him he endured the cross? ›

    This verse says Jesus focused on “the joy” that was set before Him as He endured the Cross. Just like a runner focuses on the finish line, like a builder forges ahead to view the completed project, and an author anticipates the last written page of a book, Jesus was looking forward to “the joy” of finishing.

    John 5:44 in Other Translations

    What is the spiritual meaning of saving grace? ›

    Summary. God's saving grace is the unmerited favor of God that reconciles sinners through Jesus Christ.

    How will you humble yourself so that God may dwell in you? ›

    By becoming obedient. To humble oneself is to acknowledge God as Lord and to obey as servant.

    How do you humble yourself before God? ›

    Why does God want us to humble ourselves? ›

    James 4:6 tells us that “God opposes the proud but shows favor to the humble.” Pride puts us in a place where we cut ourselves off from God's grace. But humility puts us in a position of needing God and receiving grace from Him. Forgiveness of our sin is an act of grace.

    How do I keep my eyes fixed on Jesus? ›

    And so, this is how I have been practising fixing my gaze upon Jesus:
    1. Looking up at Jesus and being in awe of Him. To look at Jesus is as simple as reading His Word to “see” Him more clearly! ...
    2. Looking ahead—beyond ourselves—to make His priorities our priorities.

    Why did Jesus endure suffering with joy? ›

    Because Jesus drank from the cup of suffering and wrath, that cup became the cup of salvation. The cup of suffering became the cup of joy. Turns out, it's the same cup. Hebrews 12 says that it was for the joy that was set before Him that Jesus endured His tortuous death on the cross.

    How to sustain the joy of the Lord? ›
